Tucson Dermatology and M-Line Skin Care Products

Now is the perfect time to get your skin glowing again with the M-Line. Unlike many skin care products that mask skin problems, the M-Line corrects fine lines, wrinkles and pigmentation issues. The M-Line allows for a physician-based program while considering the individual patient's concerns and lifestyle. M-Line technology yields products that are high quality botanicals with prescription topical skincare products.

The creamy cleanser can be used daily to effectively clean the skin. It is formulated with natural botanicals, leaving your face refreshed.

Toner

The M-Line Toner adjusts the PH of your skin, leaving your skin feeling clean and refreshed.

Retin-A

Retin-A safely and effectively reduces wrinkles, hyperpigmentation and rough texture of the skin. It provides long-lasting results and sustains clinical improvement by both restoring collagen and increasing collagen formation.

Vitamin C Serum

M-Line Vitamin C Serum is a well-formulated and well-packaged product. It protects skin cells from UV-related damage. Vitamin C can improve the appearance of sun-damaged skin, strengthen the skin's barrier response, reduce inflammation, and promote collagen production. When used in conjunction with hydroquinones it can help lessen hyperpigmentation. It can also boost the efficacy of sunscreen. Vitamin C is an antioxidant that protects skin against free radicals. Antioxidants help protect your skin from aging.

Skin Lightener

M-Line hydroquinone, available in both 4 and 5 percent, is used to lighten areas of darkened sun-damaged skin, melasma and age spots. Hydroquinone works by decreasing the production and increasing the breakdown of melanosomes (melanin pigment granules) in the skin's pigment cells (melanocytes). It does this by inhibiting the activity of tyrosinase, the enzyme needed to make melanin.

HQRA+

M-Line HQRA+ is a hydroquinone and Retin-A combined with kojic acid, and is used to help address difficult hyperpigmentation issues.

Daily Moisturizing Sunscreen SPF 20

M-Line sunscreen for daily use has an SP of 20 and should be applied 30 minutes prior to sun exposure. This is a nice daily sunscreen. However, if you are going to be exposed to the sun for a period of time greater than 30 minutes, we suggest applying a higher SPF over the daily wear moisturizer.
